I helped my boys put together this little gift for Dad for Father's Day. I found the popcorn bucket at Dollar Tree. Inside, we put a box of Pop Tarts, a bag of popcorn, some Pop Rocks candy, a giant lollypop, and some Coke Zero, his favorite "pop." The tag says, "You're the top pop!" Afterwards, I thought I really should have put in a picture of Coach Pop from the San Antonio Spurs (our favorite team). I just added some tissue paper and ribbon. It turned out really cute.
These will be centerpieces on the tables at my Son's Eagle Court of Honor *Update: See how I re-used these same cans for a patriotic luncheon. The other night I was surfing around on the t.v. and ended up watching "Extreme Cheapskates." I found myself thinking, "Ohhh... what amateurs!" But, I couldn't tell anyone. I mean I didn't want anyone to know how "cheap" I actually am. I really think they set some people up on that show. I mean seriously?!? You share a toothbrush to save money? Buy 2 toothbrushes and each will last twice as long, same with the deodorant. Yuck! Anyway, there was this lady only wanting to spend $50 on her 10 year old son's birthday. Since I'm always looking for inexpensive ways to celebrate, I kept watching. What?!?! She had his birthday party at a retirement home for $30?!?! What about having it at your house or the park for free, hello people? Instead of the Elvis...
